I've given up on giving up slowly

And I've been [Em7]locked inside that [Cadd9]house all the [G]while You hold the[Dsus4] key
And I've been [Em7]dying to get [Cadd9]out and that might [G]be the death of [Dsus4]me

I'm giving up, I'm doing this alone now
[Cadd9]‘Cause I've failed and I'm ready to be shown how
Em7 Dsus4 [cb]Dsus4/E[/cb] Bsus? Cadd9
He's told me the way and I'm trying to get there
G [cb]Dsus4/E[/cb]
And this life sentence that I'm serving
[Cadd9]I admit that I'm every bit deserving
Em7 Dsus4 [cb]Dsus4/E[/cb] Bsus? Cadd9
But the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair

[Em7]I am a hostage [Cadd9]to my own humanity
